"Elastic observability enigma - A profound analysis of pervasive real time monitoring and analytics."
4/5
What do you like best about Elastic Observability?

I like one of the best features of the elastic observability is the elastic search, which I really enjoyed. This facilitates a rapid search for the necessary logs and provides a wide range of filter options for querying to extract the necessary data from the logs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Observability?

Occasionally, findings may not be entirely correct during the fetching process, and there may be extreme delays.

And because there is so much integrated and it is not very user-friendly, I find the experience to be a little challenging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Leading observability tool, anyone should install and try it once"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Elastic Observability?

there are so many features, unfortunately it is overkill. You need to tune your solution for your own needs. Anyone on the IT industry, who is looking for a observability tool needs to try it at least once(POC, Testing). Elastic defined all the standarts on this observability stack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Elastic Observability?

Overkill for the details, you need to be preciese about the needs. Otherwise you will get lot of information with no result. The latest AI additions are useless, there needs to be some templating to make things simpler. Ressource consumption is another downside. You need a real cluster with a lot of fast IO disks.
